Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I read a couple of threads about transmission oil here but I'm still not sure what to use for my 1999 C2. I have the problem with the 2nd gear, it pops out from time to time so I thought I will try the Redline 75W90 Oil which I read sometimes helps. Redline offers a 75W90 GL4 and a 75W90 NS which is GL5. Can someone tell me what the better choice is? Do I have to use GL5 or can I also run GL4??? Thanks, Juergen

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, I really could use some help here, can I use GL4 transmission oil or do I have to use GL5??? Thanks, Juergen

POST 3Original post

Just use the Shell transaxle lube you can get from the dealer. $90 for 3 bottles.

POST 4Original post

I recently drained my gear oil and used Swepco 203, things are very smooth and very quiet.

POST 5Original post

Or you can use Mobil 1 synthetic gear oil: http://www.mobil.com/USA-English/Lub...licationsTitle It is pricey

POST 6Original post

In correspondance with Mobil they confirmed that their synthetic gear oil does NOT meet Porsche's standard for their MT.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
